In 2021, 2,143 reports of sexual assault were made in Spain.

Between 2016-2021, 274 group rapes were reported, of which 87 in 2019 only.

So far in 2022, more than 20 cases has been registered.

Where does this violence against women come from?

How come the aggressors and rapists are younger and younger?

The movie

Coke is an 18-year-old boy. He likes to play soccer and to spend time in the neighborhood with his friends Julian and David. At a party, he will meet Silvia. But his friends are planning on hooking up that night too. At whatever price.

Behind the violence

'Tribe' is born from the need to tell, through the language of cinema, something that everybody has suffered at least once in their lifetime: the loss of their individuality in front of the group and how social pressure can make a person take unwanted decisions. Even worse, it can make a person not take any decision at all and allow something to happen. An internal conflict that seems bigger in a teenage environment, with personalities still forming and the strong desire to be part of the group.
'Tribe' is also about internal fear: can we tackle the monster inside us and be able to say "stop" at a crucial moment?

In 'Tribe', as is almost always the case, women suffer the most from the consequences of the group pressure, from bad to worse: sexism, bullying, sexual aggression, daily assaults turned into "normal behavior" like something acceptable in the life of our characters. The sexist violence becomes a social attitude.
